Fiona Liu’s Reviews > Orlando > Status Update

Grass, the power seemed to say, going back with a ruler such as governesses use to the beginning, is all right; the hanging cups of fritillaries—admirable; the snaky flower—a thought strong from a lady's pen, perhaps, but Wordsworth, no doubt, sanctions it; but— girls? Are girls necessary? You have a husband at the Cape, you say? Ah, well, that'll do.

Lolll saying the scenery is not worthy of describing and that society was boring and said nothing … are the British becoming self-aware?

I love how Orlando turns into a girl and is like “goddammit can’t show off my sexy legs anymore”
